AzShooter Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 I was having trouble with my empties sticking in the cylinder after a few runs so I decided to ream the chambers with a .22 finishing reamer to see if it would help. It sure did. Today I fired 300 rounds and the empties just dropped free of the cylinder each time I went for a reload. Using my DS-10 speed loaders I was able to fire the 300 rounds in no time. I used Speedbeezs loading blocks and a Pelican box. Not only did I ream the chambers I also did a little trigger work. When I got the gun the DA pull was over 10 pounds. I like it a little smoother and lower than that so I polished the rebound slide and installed an 11 pound rebound spring. That's all I did and the trigger pull went down to 8 pounds average on my Lyman Digital Scale. The trigger is real smooth but I'm waiting for a RevUp Hammer and I expect the DA will be much smoother.

varminter22 Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 I wish you wouldn't post stuff like that. It rekindles my interest in buying a 617! LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
